Celebrating Our Colleagues and Values at the First NIS Excellence Awards

We announced winners and highly commended colleagues across five categories:

Respect
Protect
Commit
Inspire
Excellence

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this first celebration so meaningful and congratulations to all the nominated, highly commended and winning members of Team NIS. We look forward to building on this success in the years ahead.
